Greg Garcia

The birth of cool happened on August 10, 1956 in Corona, California. Greg Garcia: lover, friend, artist, teacher, biker, actor, muse. There isn't anyone that spent time with Greg whose life wasn't bettered because of it. Greg loved adventure and nature, and his artistic talents were inspired by road trips and friends. He cared deeply for his family: both chosen and given; and went to great lengths keep them safe. He possessed talent, abilities, and a heart all seemingly too big to be contained in one human. Greg inspired excellence in all. Ever generous with his time and resources, Greg taught children how to draw cartoon animation, helped people make core decisions in their lives, and brought skills out of people they didn't know they had. Truly a superhero in our eyes, that hero lives on in his artistic work in print and television; from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles , The PJs, Bump in the Night, to Biker Mice From Mars and Happy Tree Friends. His death leaves a large hole in our lives. Greg is survived by his steadfast partner of many years, Mark Connely; his family and a large crowd of howling bikers across the U.S. and around the world.
